The author says "many conservatives are trying to paint it [Black Lives Matter] as a hate group." Well, now, if any other group went around calling for the killing of police, there would be hell to pay.<br /><br />This paragraph of the article is especially alarming:<br /><br />More disturbingly, this summer, in what the Nation of Islam’s newspaper, The Final Call, called a "trip South to promote the 'Justice or Else!' gathering," Farrakhan said at a Florida church: "If the federal government will not intercede in our affairs, then we must rise up and kill those who kill us, stalk them and let them feel the pain of death that we are feeling."

The man is a hate-filled hustler who has made his living railing against the "Man". He hasn't really been relevant for a long time, so he ups the ante in his choice of wording to ensure attention. 1SG Private RallyPoint Member Mon, 12 Oct 2015 09:54:28 -0400 2015-10-12T09:54:28-04:00 Response by CMSgt James Nolan made Oct 12 at 2015 10:09 AM https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/anyone-know-the-million-man-march-and-close-to-500k-strong-too-any-thoughts?n=1034581&urlhash=1034581 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div><a class="dark-link bold-link" role="profile-hover" data-qtip-container="body" data-id="757738" data-source-page-controller="question_response_contents" href="/profiles/757738-em-electrician-s-mate-nosc-eleanor-west-virginia">PO3 Private RallyPoint Member</a> It amazes me that anyone would pay attention to such a bigoted ass. Yet they do. He is attempting to blackmail the United States, and should be punished for that. &quot;I want this, or else....&quot;<br />He has been preaching this toxin for decades.

I was glad the weather was good for the march and there was no significant violence associated with it. I was saddened that Louis Farrakhan spoke at the event. I had hoped we would have heard the last from him many years ago and sad that he seems to have people interested in his tired old "message." LTC Stephen F.
